About Autoza Ireland
Autoza Ireland (autoza.ie) is an AI-first vehicle marketplace serving all 26 counties of the Republic of Ireland. The platform connects verified Irish dealers with buyers, surfacing every listing alongside a public Dealer Trust Score, transparent pricing data, and an integrated 24/7 AI sales assistant called Aidan.
The company was founded in 2025 by Simon and operates two markets: autoza.ie (Ireland) and autoza.es (Spain). Spain launched first and has 130+ verified dealers and 23,000+ active listings. Ireland is in active expansion.
Autoza's longer-term vision is AI-to-AI vehicle commerce: a buyer's AI agent queries the marketplace, contacts the seller's AI assistant, and negotiates and closes the deal autonomously. No competitor in Ireland or Spain is currently building for this scenario.
